I'm a London-based freelance writer, screenwriter art-director and sometimes consultant, working in a variety of areas within the arts- specifically fashion, film and theatre. It began with art-school, which soon took me into studying fashion, film and literature too after. This is an eclectic Wordpress of all my work outside of that which I do for clients; but I often post some of that work here or on/via my other platforms.

London’s Christmas

It’s mid-december and things are really hotting up around London. Get yourself to the most festive places this winter.

1) Somerset House does Fortnum and Mason

Eat, drink and be merry! Fortnum and Mason has set up in Somerset House and it’s the most fabulous place to be.

Strand, London WC2R 1LA

2) Rekorderlig Cider Lodge

Scandi-style has come to town! Dine on meatballs from FÖda, whilst drinking your cider on a cushion-covered day bed! The food is all that one needs, the cider menu is phenomenal in length and the setting is beyond perfect.

Make it a day by enjoying the Southbank Christmas Market and it’s surroundings, both temporarily festive and the norm.

3) Selfridges

A fabulous menagerie of decadent windows. Endless floors of christmas shopping (including The Christmas Shop). An array of decorations and festive foods, so whats not to love! Don’t miss out on a wander through the foodhall and then grab a great seat in the forth-floor Starbucks for a festive drink, overlooking Oxford Street.

Selfridges, 400 Oxford St, London

4) Covent Garden

Covent Garden is the place to be. The tree soars high, the entire place is decorated and it’s always Champagne o’clock! The shopping is great, theres often Christmassy vendors hanging around, live music and entertainment and an abundance of food and coffee!
